7 Most Outrageous DLCs We Can't Believe They Charged Real Money For

At its best, paid DLC adds meaningful new content we happily fork over actual money to play. At its worst, paid DLC is bizarre nickel-and-diming, cheap repackaging of old material, or a premium nude patch intended to discourage second-hand sales. Behold seven egregious instances of downloadable content we can't quite believe they charged for.

@@DarkQueenHelba wait was that the actual reason behind it? I never played the game (the genre isn't my cup of tea) but a bunch of my friends played it and complained about the publisher getting greedy forcing the devs to hide the full game behind a paywall. Was it almost like a completely new game with hours of game play or was it a few hours added in to give a conclusion to the game since the sequel was canceled?

[@CeliriaRose]

@@emanuelmartinez7267 I know this comment is old but for anyone who might see this the dlc was the second type of scenario. The dlc in question added four extra chapters about 2 or so extra hours of content that to my knowledge was a condensed version of what they had intended for the sequel. To it’s credit it was well done and I’d say was worth the money and at least personally I am willing to cut the devs some slack given the circumstances since at least it meant we got the conclusion rather than the series just ending without that content ever seeing the light of day.

Also, on the topic of the Saboteur, the reason the nudity is locked behind a paywall is a ratings thing. The game was originally intended to have it in vanilla, but the various video game rating/censorship organizations were quite unhappy with that idea. So they sort of exploited a loophole which allows DLC content to be rated independently of its core game, which is why you'll occasionally see games nowadays that have blood and gore effects as an external, downloadable thing on the online store rather than being a toggle switch in the options menu like most games. That way they don't have to make any alterations to the core game files depending on regional censorship, they can just not make that external file pack available to certain markets.

[@quinnmarchese6313]

not at all saying your wrong, just genuinely curious as to what games you've seen lock blood and gore behind a DLC. i can sorta see it maybe working for like Fallout 3 and its drug names or something but ive never come across a game that makes you download the violence lol. ive only ever seen the menu toggle like in CoD or in the case of really old PC games, a toggle in the install window.

[@RHv445]

The sims 4 pet stuff pack. That was pretty much an insult to our intelligence, and wallets. Charging for what should've been in the original cats & dogs pack, was just such a moneygrab - nobody were happy with EA (and the recent Star Wars Pack sure didn't help- yikes).

[@immortalfrieza]

@@MrSniperfox29 Agreed. It shouldn't take 12 expansion packs to get all the content the game will offer, especially for the things that were in the previous game and it's expansions. I understand if they can't add in EVERYTHING from the previous game and it's expansion packs but I would at least expect a sprinkling of content from all the previous game's expansion packs in the base game with the rest of the expansion packs content being readded with 2 or 3 expansions at the most. Then add new stuff from there. Aside from the lack of the open world I saw zero reason to get the Sims 4 at all after having Sims 3 and most of it's expansions already. Sims 4 was a massive downgrade in gameplay even before the lack of the previous game's content is considered. Having to rebuy all the expansion content was just the final nail in the coffin.

[@daveincognito]

The Saboteur's Midnight Show was free if you bought a new copy close enough to the launch date. I think they mentioned you get a few extra hiding spots with the DLC, along with the nakedness.

[@666Dubhe]

fairly sure there are multiple sims 4 dlc's that fit this list. like 'my first pet stuff' or the 'bust the dust kit'.

[@quinnmarchese6313]

sims 4 itself requires like 4 DLCs at least to be remotely as fun as the last 3 were vanilla, it itself fits this list.

Sims 5 will probably have wire frame rendering out of the box, textures will be DLC. Extra for shaders.

Here's one more: The Weapon X Arena for the "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" game. Basically just a test stage and I wouldn't be surprised if it actually just was something the devs build to test the game mechanics that was than added as a paid DLC by Activision. There were a few rooms, one where could spawn enemies and decide which body part should fall off, one where you could spawn to spawn enemies to fight and kill with evironmental objects, one where could just spawn every enemy type to fight in any combination and one was a combat challenge.

In regards to the Unlock All Items DLC for Resident Evil, i absolutely bought it for RE2. I don't have the amount of free time anymore to devote to hitting 100% in games. With work, i barely get 2 hours a day if I'm lucky. Being able to unlock all of the cool stuff and play thru it when I can was really fun for me. Didn't take away from the story or experience at all for me.

[@quinnmarchese6313]

ooh i think a good one for me would be the Dust or Taiga chapters in Metro Exodus. i fucking love this game but have problems with Dust and Taiga. like the rest of the game its got the brilliant gameplay, excellent graphics and sounds, immersive elements, and slightly non-linear structure that shines in other levels, but Dust is just too damn big and empty for its own good. the car is nice for cutting travel time down but with little to actually see and collect in this level, it gets boring. the taiga has the most interesting "enemy" factions and looks beautiful but also has the three worst difficulty spikes in the game (both bear fights, ya'll know what im talking about, and when you have to get a boat from the "pirates", which just sucks if you wanna do it stealthy) and the most linear progression of the three "open world" levels.

[@CommanderRBD]

I'll fully admit I bought the reward unlocks for RE 2. But only after I played through the campaign a few times first. Some just felt time-consuming to me. Hunting down all the Mr Racoon bobblehead things may not have been too bad with a guide. But that's just the unbreakable knife. For infinite handgun, Samuari Edge and Infinite SMG you needed S Rank. Rocket Launcher S+ Rank with Leon Then the Minigun was S+ Rank with Claire. And not sure which weapons. It may have been the rocket launcher and minigun? But two of them required getting an S rank on hardcore in order to unlock. I think A/B scenarios had slightly different times. A, giving you a little extra. But I am pretty sure it was around 3 if standard difficulty. And hardcore required finishing the entire game in around 2 hours' time. Which I was entirely willing to admit I would likely never pull off LOL. Added note, decided to randomly look things up. Leon or Claire A it's 3:30 to get S. Hardcore is 2:30. Unless it's B. Then it's thirty minutes less requiring three hours and hardcore requiring two as I said Also an added condition for S+ is you can only save a total of three times.
